Zamil Majdy f1945d6a2f feat(platform/copilot): @@agptfile: file-ref protocol for tool call inputs + block input toggle (#12332)
## Summary

- **Problem**: When the LLM calls a tool with large file content, it
must rewrite all content token-by-token. This is wasteful since the
files are already accessible on disk.
- **Solution**: Introduces an \`@@agptfile:\` reference protocol. The
LLM passes a file path reference; the processor loads and substitutes
the content before executing the tool.

### Protocol

\`\`\`
@@agptfile:<uri>[<start>-<end>]
\`\`\`

**Supported URI types:**
| URI | Source |
|-----|--------|
| \`workspace://<file_id>\` | Persistent workspace file by ID |
| \`workspace:///<path>\` | Workspace file by virtual path |
| \`/absolute/path\` | Absolute host or sandbox path |

**Line range** is optional; omitting it reads the whole file.

### Backend changes

- Rename \`@file:\` → \`@@agptfile:\` prefix for uniqueness; extract
\`FILE_REF_PREFIX\` constant
- Extract shared execution-context ContextVars into
\`backend/copilot/context.py\` — eliminates duplicate ContextVar objects
that caused \`e2b_file_tools.py\` to always see empty context
- \`tool_adapter.py\` imports ContextVars from \`context.py\` (single
source of truth)
- \`expand_file_refs_in_string\` raises \`FileRefExpansionError\` on
failure (instead of inline error strings), blocking tool execution and
returning a clear error hint to the model
- Tighten URI regex: only expand refs starting with \`workspace://\` or
\`/\`
- Aggregate budget: 1 MB total expansion cap across all refs in one
string
- Per-file cap: 200 KB per individual ref
- Fix \`_read_file_handler\` to pass \`get_sdk_cwd()\` to
\`is_allowed_local_path\` — ephemeral working directory files were
incorrectly blocked
- Fix \`_is_allowed_local\` in \`e2b_file_tools.py\` to pass
\`get_sdk_cwd()\`
- Restrict local path allow-list to \`tool-results/\` subdirectory only
(was entire session project dir)
- Add \`raise_on_error\` param + remove two-pass \`_FILE_REF_ERROR_RE\`
detection
- Update system prompt docs and tool_adapter error messages

### Frontend changes

- \`BlockInputCard\`: hidden by default with Show/Hide toggle + \`mb-2\`
spacing

## Test plan

- [ ] \`poetry run pytest backend/copilot/ -x
--ignore=backend/copilot/sdk/file_ref_integration_test.py\` passes
- [ ] \`@@agptfile:workspace:///<path>[1-50]\` expands correctly in tool
calls
- [ ] Invalid line ranges produce \`[file-ref error: ...]\` inline
messages
- [ ] Files outside \`sdk_cwd\` / \`tool-results/\` are rejected
- [ ] Block input card shows hidden by default with toggle

"""File reference protocol for tool call inputs.
Allows the LLM to pass a file reference instead of embedding large content
inline. The processor expands ``@@agptfile:<uri>[<start>-<end>]`` tokens in tool
arguments before the tool is executed.
Protocol
--------
@@agptfile:<uri>[<start>-<end>]
``<uri>`` (required)
- ``workspace://<file_id>`` — workspace file by ID
- ``workspace://<file_id>#<mime>`` — same, MIME hint is ignored for reads
- ``workspace:///<path>`` — workspace file by virtual path
- ``/absolute/local/path`` — ephemeral or sdk_cwd file (validated by
:func:`~backend.copilot.sdk.tool_adapter.is_allowed_local_path`)
- Any absolute path that resolves inside the E2B sandbox
(``/home/user/...``) when a sandbox is active
``[<start>-<end>]`` (optional)
Line range, 1-indexed inclusive. Examples: ``[1-100]``, ``[50-200]``.
Omit to read the entire file.
Examples
--------
@@agptfile:workspace://abc123
@@agptfile:workspace://abc123[10-50]
@@agptfile:workspace:///reports/q1.md
